　　When Yan Zhaozhao hurried to the outside of Concubine Yan's tent, there were already a group of concubines standing outside, watching the excitement. They stood behind the furious emperor, holding a handkerchief to cover their lips, not knowing what they were pretending to cover up, but the sneer and gloating between their eyebrows completely betrayed them.

　　They may not have participated in this incident, but this did not prevent them from watching the other concubines suffer, because in this way, they would have lost a strong enemy and could get a little more favor from the emperor.

　　"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

　　Upon hearing this, the emperor did not ignore her as usual, but turned his head to look at her, "The queen is finally here, but I have been waiting for so long."

　　Yan Zhaozhao frowned slightly, but still forbearingly bowed to him, "It is late at night and the road is a little difficult to travel, I hope the emperor will forgive me."

　　"It happened suddenly, and my sister's tent is not close to here, so it is normal to be late. If the emperor wants to blame me, aren't you afraid of hurting my sister's heart?" Yan Zhiman, who was standing beside the emperor, said to the emperor with a bit of coquettishness, and her slender fingertips lightly touched his chest, full of intimacy, making people unable to feel disgusted.

　　"Forget it." The emperor held the little hand that was making trouble on his chest in his palm, and never let go. Just one move told everyone present that Yan Zhiman was now his favorite concubine who was placed on the top of his heart. "I don't want to hurt your heart, get up."

　　Yan Zhaozhao bowed her head to thank him, and unconsciously felt more disgusted with the emperor. Concubine Yan, who was pregnant with his heir, was still inside, and her life or death was unknown. However, he could hold another woman's hand at this moment and say such words, which showed that he had never cared about Concubine Yan and the heir in her belly.

　　At this time, the tent suddenly opened the curtain, and several experienced maids walked out. They held basins of blood in their hands, and their faces were extremely anxious. One of the maids who was taking care of Concubine Yan knelt down in front of the emperor and spoke with difficulty. "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Concubine Yan, Concubine Yan... had a miscarriage and heavy bleeding, and the heir... was not saved."

　　This bad news did not cause any ripples in the emperor's eyebrows. He glanced at Yan Zhaozhao with a hint of meaning, and asked, "How could it be gone?"

　　The emperor must have known what had happened in Concubine Yan's tent before, but he still asked unnecessarily, because he was afraid that Yan Zhaozhao didn't know, and he deliberately told her.

　　The maid looked embarrassed, but she didn't dare not say it. "Empress Yan...she, she had intense sexual intercourse, which frightened the fetus in her belly, so..." She didn't dare to continue the next words, but it was enough for the others present to imagine what was going on. The

　　concubines in the harem all knew that it was Concubine Chun that the emperor summoned tonight, which meant that the person who had intense sexual intercourse with Concubine Yan was not the emperor. And if it was the emperor, he would never ask these questions at this time, let alone react like this.

　　Those concubines were horrified and knelt on their knees one by one, not even daring to raise their heads, for fear that the emperor's anger would implicate them. Concubine Chun, who was beside the emperor, came with the emperor, and of course knew what had happened before, but she still knelt down with the concubines.

　　Seeing this, the emperor bent down and helped the person up. "You don't need to kneel." Then, he turned to look at Yan Zhaozhao, who did not kneel, and did not care. The corner of his mouth raised a smile, "The queen is the central palace, in charge of the gold and gold books. This matter should be investigated by the queen and explained to me. Don't take the title of queen for nothing."
